Tuxes & Tails 2024!

On May 18 at Fremont Studios, the Tuxes & Tails gala will bring together our amazing community of animal advocates and pet parents in support of the cats, dogs and critters at the shelter and in the community. Tickets are sold out for this year's event, but you can support Seattle Humane by making a gift to help pets in need.

Schedule your pet's wellness visit!

Seattle Humane offers low-cost veterinary wellness exams for pets of income-qualifying families through the Wellness Clinic on our Bellevue campus. Routine wellness exams support your pet’s health, helping them avoid many contagious viruses, which can be fatal or very expensive to treat.

Time for training!

Our dog training classes utilize positive, dog-friendly methods effective for dogs and puppies of all ages. We focus on good manners in the real world, socialization, and giving you the tools to prevent or address behavior problems.
